I recently received a subway map of the METRO in the DC area. You can also look it up on line but this map looks quite handy. You can virtually land at Reagan National on the Potomac and take the rail all throughout the DC area. It's been years since I last took the rail, around 1979 or so. When I lived in the area in the late 60's and early 70's, the subway was in the process of being built. I remember them finding old canon balls left over from the Civil War days. I was wondering if anyone has been that way recently and experienced the metro rail system there. I see the red line takes you as far as WHEATON. That place had a shopping area called WHEATON PLAZA, but they enclosed the plaza into a mall, the last time going there in early 90's or so. Times have changed but the area still looked the same somewhat.
